Freeskysound producer info:
When it comes to FreeSky tracks it's about reaching a raw and distinctive sound. This is why he does a lot of his own sounddesign. Freeskysound also keeps in mind: dynamics, musicality, edginess, happy accidents and combining traditional instruments with the analog and digital.
He brings you sounds ranging from fast to slow, dark to light, deep and emotional but also slammin' hard.
